Like a flower in the spring, Annecy city reveals its splendor in the summer when temperatures are more pleasant and tourists throng the narrow streets of the center. The installation FLOATING FLOWERS paid tribute to the Thiou river, from which the French town, also known as the Venice of the Alps, it has developed throughout history.

Along the river, the floating yellow nymphs transformed the city center in a suggestive and particular place, to remember that a city, as nature itself, always comes from water, primary source for life.
